I believe the place for these is in the dev-manual[1] If not the dev-manual, then if there is some other source of authority where they end up, there should be some mechanism to relay them to the dev-manual. Its hard to expect people to follow a policy that is mostly codified in tools and cultural wisdom. 1: https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/message/497c28fb2dab0a480c302ba966481f4f
